Different and Unique

From a young age, this AA felt apart from everyone else

I have always been different. I have either been too eccentric, too angry, too depressed, or excitable. My dissimilarity to other people in the world became substantially evident when I came out to my parents as a lesbian at age 15; the "difference" I have felt since birth had exploded into a range of emotions that I could only describe as insanity.
